Profile Information
- Hometown:
- Bainbridge Island, Washington but grew up in Mississippi
- About Me and My Book:
- I write book reviews and critiques for self-published and mainstream authors with candor and a "positive pen." I am a writing mentor, content editor, technical writer, English teacher, and sometime confessor to budding authors all around the world. I help dreams "make it" into print at affordable prices.
No offshore outsourcing and no subcontracting of editing, all work is done in a professional manner that gets your finished book to the typesetter. Editor to author communication is conducted in a facilitative manner that presents the author with descriptive as well as prescriptive feedback. This presents the client options for corrections and revisions of text while preserving the heart and soul of the work as envisioned by the author.
A good editor who shares the author's passion and vision for their work is hard to find. Mywritingmentor(TM)keeps the author's voice and passion alive in their work...just without the nasty comma splices and participles that are forever dangling.

I just wanted to mention to you a website I built called AlreadyPublished.com. It's for authors to promote their book. You do so by posting your book's first chapter, giving readers a peek into your book. The site is free and the list of books is growing, so please check it out. :) BTW, good luck with your book!
p.s. You can also check out this blog post on the Already Published Ning Network, I explain how to post your book. You can also learn more about the website there.
Best,
John

Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference 2009
Literacy is our purpose.
Fulfilling dreams is our goal.
www.scribblersretreatwritersconference.com

Scribblers’ Retreat is a non-profit organization established with the goal of reaching writers of all ages; to inspire and promote their hidden gifts and talents.
By involving the local community, authors, publishers, editors, journalists and all forms of the literary world, we are opening their minds and bringing hope where there was doubt.
Scribblers’ Retreat is not the typical classroom setting. It was designed to bring world-class authors, literature professors, editors, journalists, illustrators, photo journalists, proofreaders, publishers, publicists, screenplay writers, and website/graphic designers, etc. one-on-one with young and old alike. It is the opportunity of a lifetime for someone who has had a manuscript in a desk drawer for 40 years or who has an outstanding poem that simply must be read.
Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference
Where “can’t” is not in our vocabulary.

Are you planning to attend the Field's End conference Saturday? Love to talk to you. I have several projects in various conceptual stages and one almost written - Joanne suggested this as a good time to touch base.
